Merle Miller (1919-1986) was an editor at Harper's Magazine, Time,
and the Nation, and was the bestselling author of several books,
including the novelA Gay and Melancholy Sound and Plain Speaking,a
biography of President Harry Truman.
Dan Savage is the internationally syndicated columnist of "Savage
Love" and the author of several books. With his husband Terry
Miller, he cofounded the It Gets Better project and edited theIt
Gets Bettercollection.
Charles Kaiser is an author, journalist, and blogger. His books
include 1968 in America and The Gay Metropolis, which was a New
York Times Book Review Notable Book. He lives in New York City.
Forty years later, the story Miller tells remains important and
necessary to read, not only for both gay and straight readers to
understand the way 'it used to be', but because the issues Miller
raised are still being discussed and argued about.

Miller bridged the gap between the straights and the gays in a way
that few recent writers on the subject have done. He also put
himself on the line as a well-known writer, who was not afraid to
publicly acknowledge his homosexuality.
